    From Middlesbrough:
    Paul Truscott - former Commonwealth champion, still young and can still be a force at domestic level.
    Peter Richardson - Was a highly touted prospect in the mid 90's and was a top amateur (representing the UK at the 92 Olympics). Never amounted to anything as a pro.

    Can't think of any other's :think Certainly not the best P4P :yep

    Glasgow is ****ing awful, its the sort of city you would expect to be prefect for boxing as well, deprived, poverty afflicted, lot of violence.
